A year ago, I flew for the first time since surgery. At that time, I could, tightly buckle the seat belt, but it was uncomfortable and I had to suck it in!
On January 29th, I had to fly to Birmingham for work, and I was able to not only buckle the belt, BUT there was some slack!!! Oh happy day!!
One of the first blogs I wrote was about my embarrassing experience on a plane. It is so uncomfortable and embarrassing when you have people staring at you and giving you looks because of your size. NOT ANY MORE!! This girl can even put the seat tray down.
I also took the time and rode a carousel. I haven't done that in over 13 years and the last time I did, I sat in one of the bench seats, because I was nervous that the horse wouldn't function the way it was supposed.
Finally, I got to see the difference between where I was a year ago (just 2 months out of surgery) and where I am now! It's always fun to do comparison pics. Most of the people at the meeting hadn't seen me in a year. It was a bit overwhelming to have so many people comment on my change, but it was always humbling. I've worked hard, but not as hard as I could be working. So, if I want to wow them even more next year, this girl has to get her butt in
